Worst Calls in College Football History || Part 1 

Honestly just put all of these ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4Q2D31eAwEc.html

All the calls in the Ohio state Clemson game

The 2nd to last play, Ole Miss vs Cal, this past season. Should’ve been a TD

LastShotBot oh yea I forgot about that one

Danny Coale caught it

Tom Brady almost broke it

Lmao

The Kansas City Referees did in the afc championship

@@raymondanimalcrossing Then why did they call back a KC touchdown?

I know the nebulously-named NFL Team from the DC Area came close, but couldn’t convert the extra point. Or the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, I forget which, but it was one of those two…

I definitely got angry while making this lol.

@@pschighlights i could understand why

Carson Walker is Ohio state vs Clemson in this 2019

@@brianhuff6662 yep

@@DaWalk-X ESPN Paid the refs so they could put the game on Sec and Acc network

I was thinking the same thing haha

Fr I love how they’re all happy at first when the chain is put down but then explode when the the ref says first down😂

@@pschighlights If that ref didn't fuck up, Clowney's revenge hit doesn't happen.

love both yalls videos

Welp, it only made what comes next better.

Did you put the Fumble from the Fiesta Bowl last year?

Definition of ball don't lie.

My favorite part of the story to tell whenever that play gets brought up.

Yeah, I’m a Michigan fan..... the Clooney hit/turnover was penance for that absolute dogshit call.

It's so easy to tell which refs have money riding on the game.

Targeting. Made his NFL career with a dirty helmet hit.

It's all rigged my dude.

@@encycl07pedia- field goals, touchdowns, INTs, fumbles, are all challengeable, so if it’s close to a safety that should be instantly reviewed like scoring plays and turnovers in the NFL

@@KDill29 you do know that just because an Official or Officials have/has a brain fart, or even brain farts, that doesn't mean shit is rigged. Have Officials AND players been caught cheating before (usually for $$$$)? Of course the answer is yes but, that doesn't mean there are men and women standing behind the curtain pulling strings. I'll be willing to go this far down The Rabbit Hole and agree that.....if there are blatant 'mistakes' made by officials, coaches, and players.....something stinks. There are though, honest mistakes and miscues....that's just a part of everyday life. That 5th Down play somehow got by seemingly everybody (including the losing team) from down on the field and up to the Coaches Box and even the Commentators calling the game for Mizzou on the radio. Everyone got caught up in the clock ticking away, and the Official with the Down Marker didn't advance it after the first spike by the QB, and the rest just went by what was on the Down Marker when he spiked it the 2nd time, and it said 3rd Down lol. Everyone is entitled to their opinions, and everyone watching and loving any Sport should use what we didn't have back then.....Social Media....and call out the 'mistakes', and hold feet to the fire of those in charge. Anyone caught cheating, in any way, needs to be punished severely if need be. For me, that especially goes for those who are 'taking dives', faking injuries to stop the clock. Falling down and faking an injury used to just be prevalent in Footy (Soccer) but, not only is it continuing in that Sport, it's seen far too often in American Football. Time after time we see healthy players just dropping (often cued by teammates) to the ground. Sometimes, after Team Trainers come out, they hop back up and trot to the sideline. Other times they at least put a little effort in a limp or wobble, only to be seen moments later doing perfectly fine on the sideline and then returning to the game in ship shape. That needs to be nipped in the bun (or butt) now, and those caught behaving like a prat should receive an Unsportsmanlike Conduct Penalty, marched off against their team and if done enough, costing their team 15 yards every single time....just maybe they will stop that behavior.

You writing a book, G.D. who's going to read that,we saw the video.

@@jeffpadgett1339 then don't read it, no skin off my shoulders, and it was my time to waste in writing it.

The on field officials have no control over the replay review.

The booth can review it make the correct call, and the ref can still confirm the wrong call on the field. The booth doesn’t have the mic

@@drewp.weiner2473 but the ref says what the booth’s review decided.

@@darthplagueisthewise4560 my point is, the ref can say what he wants.

@@drewp.weiner2473 but it’s what booth decided. The on field official states what the booth went with. He has no say in what they decide.

Typical Fresno state things

Well, Clowney dealt with it a play later

If you look again, you can even see the other ref trying to move the marker back after SC reacted to the awful call. I mean do refs really need to be on the take for the outback bowl. c'mon.

Christopher T. Facts

Yeah like bruh

They already had given the guy a great spot too.

as a miami fan im just gonna have my bias glasses on and keep loving that play everytime i watch lmao

I could see the first penalty being missed, but the last two were obvious.

Central Michigan was not supposed to reward the football 🏈 untime after Oklahoma State penalized for intentional grounding. The referees and replaying crew got suspended as well.

And after 30 years of losses, I'm not sure any of us KState fans care. The vid could just as easily include a KSU fumble from earlier in the game that went for a corn td, but the RBs knee was down and the ground caused the fumble.

@@powercatjeffy wow buddy nice whataboutism. It's insane that you can't just say yeah that's a crazy facemask.

@@fcktherich6913 wut? Do you even remember the Murphy fumble in that game? I bet you don't.

@@fcktherich6913 He's still proving your point 🤣

@@powercatjeffy wutabout, wutabout, wutabout . . .

Exactly lol/ Wish this showed the immediate aftermath

Johnathan Patrick Rumor has it there’s still a bounty on that Michigan helmet that went flying on that play.

Also, the play right after that is a TD pass.

Still searching for that helmet in space.

Ball dont lie

Although it didn’t matter much the best one I’ve seen was Florida’s 7-play stand against Georgia in 2018. Another good one was us against LSU in 2017. That one was game-winning.

nice im an auburn fan so i liked both of those

Jake Johnson nice! I love Auburn. Back when we were trash I loved watching y’all with Newton. Kinda made up for it. Saw the kick-six live. Y’all are probably my second-favorite team :)

Craig B thanks man! mad respect for Kyle Trask and it was a great game this year!

Craig B yea the kick six was the play that made me love football when i was young just learning the sport

I always wondered at what point did any referee actually see an Oregon player with the ball…he couldn't have, because the ball squirted out the back of the mass of bodies and an OU player (Patrick, I believe) rolled out of the pile with it.

To give it to Oregon, wouldn't the ref need to see them with the ball? What a ripoff that game was!!

Man I live in Oregon but I’m from Oklahoma and that play drives me nuts everytime they show it out here...Boomer!!!

I am an Oregon fan and was in the student section for this game. Jumped the wall and rushed the field after the game and all that! Then saw the replay at home the next day and was like, wow... OU got screwed. lol. My apologies!

Gordon Riese

The OU Oregon call and the OSU Central Michigan debacle were the 2 worst I’d seen in my life time. It’s BS that both crews were suspended for horrendous officiating but the L still counted.

In an OU-Texas game some years go, Texas scored toward the end of the game to go up and one of the officials jumped up and down and celebrated!

*Outback

@@breatherboy6046 What game was that? I have to see that, unless you're a Texas fan trying to trick an OU fan into watching a game where we lost to Texas. Never mind, a Texas fan couldn't possibly be that clever.

Florida team in a Florida bowl

I hate Iowa too, but damn thats some BS.

d rockwell shut up the refs love Florida Florida is so overrated every year fuck Florida

d rockwell bro fuck no you straight in denial you already know that was the worst officiating ever

Jack Osland fuck Denver they suck fucking balls lmfao

@d rockwell he's a scumbag for making a video of bad calls? What the fuck is wrong with you?

I’m a huge Iowa State fan and hate Iowa to death, But that’s just retarded

They smoking that Vegas check for fixing the game.

@@davidbowser3181 Exactly. Not sure why people still don't understand that

Yes, a lot of these were before review was an option. The refs call was the end of discussion for that play. Refs had big sway on a games outcome. More than a few were caught gambling on games they officiated. Some were just legitimate bad calls (ref at a bad angle, wasn't looking at that particular spot, to far away) but some were all about getting paid.

He did not hit it. He did naht. Oh bye vision.

Yeah I think that was KTO

Probably was.

Lol my dad and his cousin snuck on the field and were on the sideline when the 5th down happened

WeShowYou39071319 do you got your heart ripped out to close nice!

That’s true, but every official still has a down market on their hand. Between every official at least one should have had their down marker on their last finger on fourth down.

And it was absolutely the right call. It was the textbook definition of an illegal block. Not sure how it made this video.

Because it was the wrong call

@@mph7282 in 2012, there weren't any rules against blocks like this

@@mph7282 It's actually a textbook block. Tell me what part of that block was illegal, especially in 2012. A defender in active pursuit a few yards behind the ball carrier? Check. Bell leads with shoulder? Check. Bell aims for defender's midsection? Check. Bell keeps feet and doesn't launch himself at the defender? Check. The defender got his clock cleaned, plain and simple. Like Gus Johnson said, that's football. It was a moot point in that shit-show of a game for the Huskers, but your staunch dismissiveness of a call that was clearly wrong borders on arrogance and is quite laughable. Enjoy living a life of delusion.

@@b7grams the official was ahead of his time. Clearly unnecessary roughness and just a dangerous block that could seriously hurt someone. Thankfully its a penalty now.

Missouri takes a lot of that blame too for not even noticing it themselves.

The PSU catch out of bounds cost Nebraska a national title and PSU won the title despite losing a game later in the year.

Without question.

It getting worse. The speed of the game is increasing and the officials aren't keeping up.

The sad part is that the opposite can be said to be true as well. The lack of consistency with calls is truly what plagues college football. To this day we still have no definitive rule for pass interference other than "unwritten rules" which ARE SUBJECTIVE. Saban said it best in an interview when asked about interference calls when he stated that if he had written rule for what his DBs aren't allowed to do then he would coach that. Referees are human and humans have biases even subconscious bias that they may not be aware of that affects how they call a certain play. IMO all sports should purely have technology determine these things. Forget the "tradition" or whatever the excuse is.

Someone hasn't watched enough NFL games. Bad calls nonstop

Nebraska got pay back in '94

@@buckstraw925 not sure if you remember but Nebraska walloped Penn State in the very first College Football Kickoff Classic the following August 1983. A lot of people called it the 2nd National Championship of year.

@@automaticmattywhack1470 Yes I remember that one as well. The '94 season though was a controversial vote and robbed Penn State of a national championship. So Nebraska got the pay back twice!

agreed

That fumble. Idek how

Just like that pass interference against Miami that clearly wasn’t?

@@jeffdavis5133 the pass interference against Miami wouldn't have even happened if the refs would've called the mugging of Gamble with 2:27 left in the 4th. Not to mention the pass that should've given OSU a set of downs for kneeling. Yea, sorry not sorry, Miami shouldn't have even made it to OT. The idea THAT decided the game is laughable.

@@thomasanderson6426 You are absolutely correct and no one ever talks about it. That was a horrendous missed call. I have disliked Skip Clueless ever since. He never has acknowledged that play and would call OSU the Luckeyes.

It's okay, he was short on 5th down too. That sideline ref had literally just got in a fight with Mizzou fans on the sideline. He was calling TD no matter what. Camera don't lie though

Mizzou got screwed over big time

During that series a dude on the sideline had a heart attack which distracted the sideline ref and made him forget to signal the new down

@@dannybailey3720 doesn't matter...they would've probably stopped clock with one second left and given them a 6th down.....still no idea why they stopped clock on 3rd down

Did you not see the play when a player that got his mask grabbed had it called against him?.. it was an Hawkeye player I think 🤔

@@sirslickrock LOL...at least they called it.

Almost had his neck snapped!

The worst call(s) I’ve ever watched live.

@@rossflair6057 I'm an Oklahoma fan. I was so mad.

What am I missing? An oklahoma player touched the ball first. If you looks closely, the ball bounces off an OU players helmet at 12:31 before anybody else touches it

@@GrannySingaporePVP You need to look at some different camera angles, dog.

@@GrannySingaporePVP even if Oklahoma touched it first (which they didn't) Oregon didn't even get possession of the football. they were still digging through the pile and number 23 is standing there holding on the ball.

There's no interference in that situation. The refs still missed the the early touch though

True

Pac 12 Shorts Why is that hard to believe? You don't have to be that good to make it to a conference championship game. Right now it's hard to imagine because they're so awful but besides the short time where they were elite they've been good for a lot of years.

It's that kind of hit that shattered Keith Rivers's jaw in the NFL; a Hines Ward-type blindside against a player who can in no way defend himself. I couldn't agree at all with Gus Johnson; *that's* the kind of play they want out of the game for the safety of the players.

@@HHopebringer i agree maybe 10 or 20 years ago it was a good hit but the NFL and ncaa understand now how dangerous those hits are. I remember Warren Sapp on Chad Clifton the hit while legal separated cliftons pelvis.

@@HHopebringer that's football. If you don't want to get hurt, don't play.

Those are two examples of the State Penn Inmates having the officiating crews in their pockets, which is one of the reasons I have never recognized that school as part of the Big Ten, the other being regionalism as Pennsylvania is not in the Middle West, but, clearly in the Northeast. As for the Maryland Twerps, the other (and, in this case, primary) reason is one Gary Williams, who evidently never really planned on staying at Columbus for the long haul as he was always taking interviews elsewhere. As the Dean of Central Ohio sportscasters, Jimmy Crum, said live on Newswatch 4 (WCMH-TV) regarding Williams: "Good riddance!"

the acc refs hate miami so idk what your talking about we had two close games lost because of bad calls this year and they've always not liked us because of our reputation back then as the "bad guys"

but yea the block of in the back which there was only one and then two players running from the sideline before the play ended was bad i was watching that and i was like there is no way we're gonna get away with this because we never get the good end of the stick but i guess that day was our lucky day

Typical ACC officials!

😅😅😅😅(those are the same refs that were in the OSU clemson game)

@@nicholaswilhelm1147 Actually that was SEC officiating Crew in the OSU-Clemson game

Very accurate

Bro that was one of thr worst calls in sports history there’s a reason it’s in the vid ur dumb

quit crying the ball came first game over

For me the shock was why it took so long for a flag...

@@jadenn216 did you read the comment cry baby? Did you watch the 3rd down call? It wasn't PI but it was holding (did you see the call against Phili in the Super Bowl? Same deal)

The amount of times PAC officials get suspended is kind of outrageous. In 2012 the officiating crew for the Arizona OSU game got suspended after clear favoritism, I believe the crew for the ASU Wisconsin game a few years ago got it as well after they just let the clock run out by not placing the ball for Wiscy

I’m a Carolina fan… we finally come to an agreement 😂

As an Ohio State fan, I agree with you. Additionally, as an Ohio State fan, I honestly have no choice but to give credit to Charlie Bauman for doing what he was supposed to do in response to Art Schliester and his gambling-induced act of stupidity in throwing the football that dark, dark night at Jacksonville. As we learned that night, Woody Hayes understated the fact: Actually, four things can happen when you throw the football and three are bad; the fourth being that your head coach can lose his job over the greed of his quarterback. Another lesson from that night (and one which I had to learn the hard way) is: If you're from Columbus, never, and I mean never, go to Jacksonville!

I know the OSU-CMU refs were fined and suspended for two weeks, which is absurd because that game should’ve been overturned by the NCAA

The Miami-Duke refs were also suspended, and the ACC released a statement detailing all the reasons that touchdown should not have counted.

the Iowa/Florida ones were fired and their conference was banned from reffing bowl games

Something similar almost happened to Ryan Switzer about 5 years ago. He caught the ball, made no fair catch signal, was hit by a Wake Forest player, and ran it nearly for a touchdown. The refs claimed that Switzer illegally ran after making a fair catch. I wasn't at the game, but my dad and brother said the refs were booed for the rest of the drive, while Fedora chewed the ass out of the ref as if he was bubble gum.

I was at that game, the refs were downright awful. Made me feel better seeing the student section pelt the refs with snowballs though.

Yes, the main point being having the ball. The ref missed the fact that he had the ball, even though all the other criteria are pretty self-evident as well, yikes! Poor refs, it's gotta be hard to be a ref, especially when you're on the take, errrrr, I mean.....

understand you are making a very poor joke, but you seriously need to put sports in perspective.

@@steveswangler6373 OK Karen. 🙋‍♀️

Or the Courtney Osborne “roughing the passer” on Ryan Tannehill

Him running on the field wouldn't negate the whole play. If it happened before then yes but it happened after the play was in motion. It would have just been added on the next teams possession.

It does make me mad as a duke fan but the play was still executed well

@@rashbyboy4499 yeah I think there has to be room for error on last plays like that. The effort that they gave was incredible. Sure it sucks if you’re a duke fan but as a football fan, it’s fun to watch.

@@jarodtincher2933 the problem I and many people have is that they used replay to pick up a flag. They said there was a block in the back and then went to replay to overturn it. Funny enough, the refs were STILL wrong. There was a blatant block in the back during the return.

@@jarodtincher2933 also, I am a Tar Heels fan, so it says a lot when a rival fan believes Duke won.

He took it out of this hands after the play

@@sirduck2322 he ran a long ways with it to have taken it after the play.

@@sirduck2322you really didn’t see 23 from OU just roll onto the ball and pick it up? It was 17 years ago now, it’s okay to admit it was a bad call, they won’t take the win from your team

Eh don't get too mad about it. Bama scored a touchdown so it's all good. Now how about that terrible PI call this year in LSU vs Alabama in OT. With that call going LSU's way, Bama now has a tough decision: Go for it on 4th and Goal or kick a Field Goal and try and make a stop.

Illegal hands to the face at the snap.

The right call was supposed to be holding.

@@tadrood3386 I see no illegal hands to the face at the snap. I also do not see the alleged penalities on Miami. I suspect scarlet tinted glasses

@@ayarzeev8237 There's an angle of that play where Gamble's jersey is completely pulled sideways on a hold during the cut on that exact play. I know it's sad but the outcome is the same, 1st and goal. Truth be told the refs let Miami play in overtime... they should feel lucky.

It's actually an easy call. The rule is clear and the violation of the rule was also clear. The announcer was wrong when he said the QB spiked it over his shoulder. He actually through about 10 yards up in the air. The ref was just doing his job. The mental screw-up was the QB throwing the ball. That year was one in which the NCAA was coming down hard on end zone celebrations. Ref was just doing what the NCAA wanted home to do -- follow the rules.

@@MrGeneric2011 that’s still minor no need for a flag

That happened a few years ago. It was Ole Miss vs Mississippi State. Ole Miss scored a touchdown with two seconds left. The guy who scored went over by the goal post and lifted his leg and pretended to pee on it like a dog. The referee threw the flag for that too. The Ole Miss kicker missed the extra point and Mississippi State won the game 21-20.

Yes

Husker fan here. Yeah, the 'Flea Kicker' MIGHT have been just a little bit illegal. But props to the Mizzou QB - he was a warrior.

Lol you're not lying. The ball literally landed in the locker room tunnel (directly behind the goal posts like most stadiums). I think the ref just started signaling "no good" before the ball made its last curve inside the uprights.

For some reason Kentucky has been getting the benefit of the calls in the sec in football the last few years. It’s bad enough how they get protected in basketball.

j walk bro what Kentucky always gets screwed on bad calls they handed Florida the win last year by calling a targeting when Kyle trask lowered his head.

We did get a little repayment against 4th ranked MSU in '15 when our receiver went out of bounds and back in to catch the game-winning TD pass, but the refs ruled he was forced out.

there are fans for every team in every sport in the world that will say the exact same thing about their team. nebraska fans should never cry, you were gifted a national championship over a much superior team in 1994

@@steveswangler6373 The #2 team that year didn't face any top 10 teams. They were probably good but hard to say. In their bowl game they faced a team that went 1-3 against P5 outside the big bad PAC-10. And that was the highest final ranked team they faced.

It was PI. don't know how people ssy it isnt. Db clearly got there early and didn't let the receiver go back for the ball. The only reason people question it is bc it was thrown late.

@@MOBOBBA2166 nah, it was perfect defense He doesn't touch him until the ball get there, look at the replay and see all the space between gamble and the db

@@fredleeland2464 nah he's definitely there early. Besides earlier in the 4th on a 3rd down try osu completes a pass and they rule incomplete. The refs miss calls all the time miami had numerous chances to win after the so-called bad call.

@@fredleeland2464 Its ok made up for the miss call when gamble caught that 3rd down pass for a first down that would of iced the game.

You can say what u want about the Mia Ohio game but there was no way canes were walking out of there with the win that night, and no that wasn’t no damn pass interference.

I remember all the NFL game announcers the following day thought it was a horrible call ,,,,all of them had distinguished NFL careers.....

If u look tho Miami's lineman tipped it so it shouldn't of been a PI

@@markcook3570 distinguished careers as players, not as referees. Announcers primarily exist to say stupid shit like, "The bad thing about 1st & goal is you can't get another first down," an actual quote from an NFL announcer with a distinguished career, that completely ignored the obvious benefits of 1st & goal on the 6 and is factually incorrect as a defense can always (and did in that case) hand the offense a first down through penalty. Announcers, especially "color commentators", are idiotic bobbleheads who simply fill dead air, not officiating experts.

@@Sumndoe the "correct" call was defensive holding, which would've produced an identical outcome.

@jeff afe go watch the whole game and come back here when you realize the refs screwed Ohio State out of winning in regulation with bad calls in their final drive, or when you realize that the "correct" call of defensive holding on that play would've resulted in the same outcome, shit for brains.

we were down 34-7, we score there and its the biggest comeback in bama history. Crazy how the refs missed that so terribly.
